Finding someone who you like enough to hang out with on a regular basis is hard enough. But finding someone who you like enough to smoke with regularly? That’s a different ball game, and the best 420-friendly dating apps can help you find someone to share your next joint with.

“I don’t care that you’re a stoner” are words any weed enthusiast would love to hear during a hangout sesh — ideally from Chappell Roan herself’s mouth during an a cappella serenade of Red Wine Supernova, but from any old date works, too. And while it may or may not be a tricky subject to bring up on a blind date or otherwise serendipitous meeting, putting the feelers out on a dating app can help prevent any awkward run-ins with someone who’s not about that life.

Past that, if ingesting weed in your preferred form comes to mind when listing off your hobbies, it’s completely valid to prefer that a potential match who also considers Netflix, the couch, and a laser bong as a date.

Is there a dating app for weed users?

Finding a weed-friendly partner doesn’t require a weed-centric dating app, though a few of those technically do exist. High There! and 420 Singles would probably be considered the two “main” ones, though “main” is a bit of a stretch when the lack of an active user base or name recognition come into play. While it would be nice to guarantee that every single person on your feed is down to get high, a good number of user reviews point back to the same issues: of the few profiles that aren’t dead or bots, said apps are often used just to buy and sell weed.

In many cases, you’ll simply fare better on a general dating app that happens to be weed-friendly, like most of the ones we’re suggesting in this list. Regardless of whether or not recreational weed has been legalized and/or decriminalized in your state, many top dating apps allow you to disclose your usage directly on your profile or and weed out the non-believers through filters.

However, it’s worth mentioning that not all of these advanced matchmaking features that would be helpful for fellow stoner seekers are free. On Hinge, for example, you can’t filter based on marijuana stance (or height, political views, or religion) unless you’re a paid subscriber.

Below, we’ve pulled the best 420-friendly dating apps out there in 2024 — one specifically designed just for stoners, and the rest more broad, popular options where you can bond over more than leaf emoji things — while high, of course.
